Abstract
Latinos are the fastest growing minority in United States, some tracing their roots to early Spanish settlers, others more recent arrivals. Many Mexican-Americans soldiers join the fight in Vietnam and return in body bags. The anti-war activism of the 1960s and 1970s ignites other civil rights and political activities. Caesar Chavez and Corky Gonzales advocate farm workers rights and emphasize the importance of the language, heritage, and cultural traditions of Chicano people.
